There are people here on FR defending this publicity-seeking idiot, saying he did nothing illegal.

Show me where what he did was illegal. I've provided a link to prove to you what he did was not in my post #7.

He's certainly a hypocrite, which is what we should be calling him on. The AR-15 with the 30-round mag wasn't the only thing he wanted to buy. He actually purchased a 1911 in .45 ACP, as well. He took it home that very day, presumably after completing a 4493 for that purchase.

He may not have technically violated the law by making straw purchase, but I seriously doubt the BATFE would take such a lassez-faire view if he were not an anti-gun “celebrity”.
